Ok, it's that time of year again and the question remains the same...Do I stuff the bird or do I put the stuffing in a pan?
I normally stuff that silly bird. And if I have any left over it goes in a pan. What do you do? Are you afraid of bacteria growing in your stuffing?

I put it up too quickly to worry about bacteria growing. I love a stuffed bird. I think it tastes better than the leftovers in the pan even with bird juices added during cooking. I also think it helps the bird stay moister.
But an unstuffed bird does cook a little faster. And a whole onion or two tucked into an empty bird helps with flavor and moisture.

I put my stuffing in a pan... :grinnnn:

I've done it both ways BUT my family would rather have lasagna or steak so I'm not cooking another turkey.

:giggle: we eat turkey 2 times a year. once for thanksgiving and once sometime in the middle when we eat the second bird i get while they are on sale.
as for stuffing, we always put it in a pan. never had stuffed in the bird stuffing.

I would probably get turkey breasts during the year to cook but the price goes way up and if it's between turkey or beef I always choose beef. What can I say?
